This mini project is a proxy tester based on requests. It utilized pandas for handling csv files and click for the CLI.

This script tests proxies by querying (GET request) a testing website that returns the IP of the client. If the returned IP matches the IP of the proxy, we consider the proxy to be good.

python cli.py single http://1.1.1.1

This will test the HTTP proxy 1.1.1.1 against the default testing website iptest.ingokleiber.de. You can run your own testing service using the PHP script in /ipinfo. This service should be offered both via HTTP and HTTPs.

python cli.py single http://1.1.1.1 --iptest iptest.yourdomain.com

python cli.py csv-file proxies.csv

This will (re)test all proxies in the given file.

python cli.py add-from-txt-file proxy_candidates.txt

This will add and test each proxy (one per line) in proxy_candidates.txt.
